1st-curtain
The flash fires right after the shutter opens,
regardless of the shutter speed. Usually, the 1st-
curtain is used when shooting.
2nd-curtain
The flash fires right before the shutter closes,
regardless of the shutter speed. Compared with the
1st-curtain, the flash fires later and this allows you to
shoot images in which, for example, a car's rear
lamps seem to trail off behind.
